She wanted to ask Ding Dong how many tasks he had to complete before he could go back, but Cai Xing came to report:

"My dear, the girl you brought back has recovered and can walk. She said she wanted to come and thank you!"

Shen Meimei then remembered that she had brought a girl back from outside the palace, so she smiled and said:

"Let her in quickly. I want to take a look at her injuries!"

Soon, the girl walked in slowly. When she saw her savior, she knelt down and said:

"I, Douzi, kowtow to the Queen, may the Queen live a thousand years without worries!"

Shen Meimei looked at the child's tender face and asked with a smile, "How old are you? Why are you called Douzi? Where are your parents? Now that you are well, I will have someone send you home."

Douzi kowtowed three times before crying:

"My lady, please don't send me back. My family members are all dead, and I have been an orphan since I was young. I found a dilapidated house when I was escaping from famine, and I thought I could stay there for a few days. But it rained heavily, and the house collapsed. I almost starved to death.

"Thanks to the Queen for saving me, I will be your servant! There is food and drink here, and such a nice house to live in. Please let me stay!"

Cai Xing felt sorry for Douzi and wiped her tears. "My dear, please stay. When Douzi first came, he was dirty, dark and thin. My dear, look, in just a few days, Douzi has become a different person."

Shen Meimei took a closer look and found that she looked much better than when she first arrived. Her face was rosy and her skin was much better.

"Okay, just keep Douzi. I will change your name. From now on, you will be my personal maid like Caixing and Caiyue, so change your name to Caiyun." Shen Meimei said with a smile.

When Douzi heard this, he was very excited, and Caixing was also very happy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. From now on, I will be called Caiyun. I have a name now, and it sounds so nice!" Douzi jumped up happily.

Shen Meimei told Caixing to teach Caiyun the palace etiquette well so as to avoid being laughed at when they go out.

"Yes, my lady, I will definitely teach Caiyun well and will never embarrass Yuxuan!" Caixing said, and led Caiyun out.

The usually deserted Suiyuxuan has now become the most lively place in the palace. Three children, including Jinxi and Xiaoyunzi from Yongshou Palace, have moved here.

Shen Meimei suddenly felt that life in the palace was not bad.

It was April, neither too cold nor too hot. She took a good look around the Sui Yuxuan and found a stage in a side hall. Although it was abandoned, the overall layout was still there.

After all, Sui Yuxuan had suffered a fire and was later renovated, but the stage was not repaired and was retained in its original appearance.

Shen Meimei was a little tired after walking around. Although this place was not as magnificent as Yongshou Palace, it was larger and had more lush plants. She called Xiao Yunzi over:

"I know you are clever and can cut paper and build a swing. Now that Imperial Noble Consort Dunmin is gone, I and Imperial Noble Consort Dunmin are like sisters, so I will certainly not treat you unfairly!

Find a way to tidy up this stage and restore it to its original state, and remove the weeds on the other side. I want to grow some vegetables so that I can have vegetables for the small kitchen in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunzi bowed and said, "Yes, Madam, please rest assured, I will do it!"

Shen Meimei nodded slightly, "I know you are capable, don't do it alone, the position of the eunuch leader of Suiyuxuan will be yours in the future, bring the people below to do it together, the great man said, do it yourself, and you will have enough food and clothing!"

Xiao Yunzi asked with a puzzled look, "Who is the great man?"
